O's Open Up Interleague Play With Extra Innings Win.

Before we get to the game recap from last night I just wanted to make everyone aware of a move the O's made yesterday that has large BWP Clipped Wing Award implications. In order to make room for Douchey Matt Albers on the major league roster, Adam Eaton was released from the team, all but ending his chances of becoming the CWA champion.

With Eaton off the team and co-leader Mark Hendrickson out of the pitching rotation, the CWA lead is up for grabs. My money is on Peter Angelos, but it's too early to tell at this point.

Anyways, back to last night's game. My man Rich Hill pitched another great game, giving up 2 earned runs in 5 2/3 innings. Adam Jones had 3 RBIs, including the game-winning double in the top of the 12th.

Tonight the series continues as the O's send Koji to the mound against some Nationals pitcher I've never heard of. Go O's.
